Yep learnt to ski there many years back and all my daughters have learned there as well. We have always been very happy with the lessons there and over the years have been regular visitors for a bit of skiing or snowboarding.

It can sometimes get a bit busy at Tamworth when group lesson are on, though less so over the late spring into summer. When I was a beginner (I still am really) they guided me through the plow to parallel period and helped me not a total noob on the big boy slopes abroad.
The two instructors I had Tamworth lessons with were perfectly good, professional and friendly though not quite as good as a snowheads bash instructor of course

It should be starting to quieten down now Easter is done and the ski season is all but over. I wouldn't say Tamworth gets any busier than Chill Factore or the Castleford fridge which are the other two I sometimes use.

Why are they called "snowdomes" when none of the ones I have been to (all of two) have been dome shaped, more of a boxy warehouse shape stuck on the side of a slope.
Are any dome shaped?

@rjs, MK looks a bit like a cockroache’s carapace from above?

Anyone else miss-read ster's post and now trying to picture what a cockroache's codpiece would look like?

Any visitors to Tamworth from around 5th May for 3 weeks, look out for Ed Guigonnet, who is doing an internship there as part of his tertiary education course. https://edguigonnetski.com/ . I’m hosting him in Birmingham for the duration, hoping that in due course I get boasting rights that he was once my lodger when he takes over from Dave Ryding as the next big thing. I’m not sure what he’ll be doing at Tamworth but hopefully might be seen on skis from time to time!
He’s in the GB Juniors squad, 18th in world juniors slalom this year, and overall GB ski champ as of about a month ago. Mum is English (a force to be reckoned with, and constantly raising money to support his exploits), Dad is french, and home is in St Martin de Belleville.
